The Ethics Session at the Company of Biologists “From Stem Cells to Human Development” workshop Last September the Company Of Biologists organized an exciting three-day dive into the biology of ...Posted by Aryeh Warmflash, on 24 September 2014
Waddington, whose writings on the epigenetic landscape continue to influence developmental biology to this day, called the developing embryo “the most intriguing object that nature has to offer”(Waddington, 1966). The ...Posted by kjchalut, on 17 June 2014
Once upon a time, physicists got curious about the cytoskeleton. They characterised the cytoskeleton – using tools of soft matter, statistical and polymer physics – as a mesoscale material whose ...Posted by Kara Cerveny, on 16 April 2014
Another installment from the Developmental Neurobiology Students at Reed College. Hope you enjoy! It’s not often that you get to recount the classic tale of Stone Soup when thinking about ...Posted by Christele Gonneau, on 28 February 2014
When it comes to stem cell biology, there have been very few topics as fascinating and popular as cell reprogramming, the most famous reprogramming experiment being the one of Dolly ...Posted by Marios Stavridis, on 17 January 2013
O-GlcNAc signalling during embryonic stem cell differentiation My lab is studying the signalling mechanisms governing the onset of differentiation of pluripotent embryonic stem (ES) cells. Work from this and other ...Posted by tkunath, on 13 July 2012
Job Summary: Due to the set up of a new induced pluripotent stem (iPS) cell facility managed by Roslin Cells Ltd, we are looking to employ two Cell Culture Scientists to ...Posted by Erin M Campbell, on 8 March 2012
The progress of stem cell research depends on the ability to grow stem cells in culture. Embryonic stem (ES) cells from some organisms, such as humans, have proven difficult to ...Posted by Erin M Campbell, on 15 August 2011
Do your ears perk up when you hear about embryonic stem cells? We all have heard and/or participated in the controversy surrounding the use of them, yet there is no ...Posted by Erin M Campbell, on 9 February 2011
What I love about developmental biology is the collaborative nature of the field. The vast majority of biologists feel that by sharing ideas, data, and reagents, we can learn more ...
